Special Clinics Held At The Surgery

Antenatal Clinic

This clinic is held weekly on a Wednesday morning. We share antenatal care with the local Maternity Departments.

A full contraceptive service, well woman checks and HRT monitoring are available. Postnatal checks are done at six weeks. The doctors provide advice on pre-conceptual care and sterilisation counselling. A fully trained family planning nurse is in attendance.
